Dear FreeSurfer experts, I did contact you before regarding the problem below ( Talairach Failure Detection ) and one suggestion was to use lower resolution MPRAGE rather than using .5mm one. ( Our MPRAGEs were acquired at 7T scanner with 0.5mm isotropic resolution). I acquired a new MPRAGE at

Hi Ali, do you want to send us a sample of the data. It's very hard to get anything like uniform contrast over the whole brain at 7T due to dielectric effects. We rarely use the 7T for this kind of thing as in our experience the 3T is better (in contrast to say T2* weighting, which is beautif

[Freesurfer] Minor issues with Freesurfer v4.0.4/rerunning on 4.2.0

Hey everyone, I have finished anatomical segmentations on a batch of brains, however this was done in Freesurfer 4.0.4 and I realized several of my subjects have issues previously described here: https://mail.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/pipermail//freesurfer/2008-August/008266.html, with MRIScomputeWhiteV

Hi Rysia, I've been re-thinking the issue of demeaning variables (continuous covariates). First, demeaning has no effect on the value or significance of the slope of the variable, it only has an effect on the offset/intercept value and significance. When you have a continuous covariate in the m

Hi everyone, I have a quick question but an important one. We are working on a 5 year study involving well over 1000 scans. Processing of these patients is primarily done using a cluster machine loaded with freesurfer version x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu-dev4-20080904. However, sometimes it is us
